The Cold Hearted Boss

5. New ride

When I opened the front door in the morning I was surprised to see a man at the door. He wore a blue polo that was tucked into black dress pants. On the right side of the chest on the polo it had a car logo. Underneath the logo it said ‘Mazda Atlanta’.

“Good morning, are you Ms. Foster?” He asked with a smile.

“Yes sir I am, can I help you?” I asked with furrowed brows.

“Yes ma’am, I’m here to deliver your car.” His hand outstretched with keys in his palm.

“But I thought my car couldn’t be fixed?” His brows rose with confusion. I took a moment to look behind him, a gasp left my lips. Parked at the curb was a brand new blue Mazda 3.

“There must be a mistake, that’s not my car.” I stared at him in shock.

“Are you not Violet Foster?”

“I am, but my Mazda is old and messed up. What year is that?” I walked towards the car, the car guy hit on my heels.

“It’s a new 2023.”

“There has definitely been a mistake.” I gaped at the car in front of me.

“Here, I have the receipt.” He said walking over to a black car that was parked directly behind the blue one. I hadn’t noticed there was another man in the same outfit, I was so absorbed in this new car. The second man walked over to us and handed me a clipboard. I looked it over again and again. My eyes were drawn to the bottom that showed the purchase information. The credit card was marked out, but the name on the card was there in black and white. Nathaniel David Harrison. I squeezed my eyes shut as I clutched the clipboard. I took a deep breath and slowly opened my eyes.

“Thank you so much, sorry for the confusion, I’ll take the keys now.” I held out my shaking hand. The men shared eye contact as the first man placed the keys in my hand. I shook slightly as I climbed into the beautiful car. I clutched the steering wheel and pulled away from the curb, mentally preparing the speech I had planned for my boss.

I stomped up the short steps to the office, yanking the door open. I briskly walked down the hall and without knocking I threw open Nathan’s office door. He looked up at me with surprise, his eyebrows raised.

“Good morning, Violet, how can I help you?” Is he serious right now?

“Why did you buy me a car, Nathan?” I asked exasperated.

“Because your other car wasn’t working anymore.” He said as if we’re obvious, as if it were a normal thing to do.

“You can’t just buy me a new car.” I threw my hands up in the air.

“Why not?” He crossed his arms, leaning back in his chair.

“Because you’re my boss, it feels a little inappropriate to just buy your secretary a new car.” I wanted to scream at him, but I kept my voice level.

“Just think of it as a new employee bonus.” He waved his hand dismissively and turned his attention back to his computer.

“No, Nathan, I’m not accepting this.” I planted my feet firmly and placed my hands on my hips. His head slowly turned to look at me. The look in his eyes had my breath catch in my throat. He placed his hands flat on his desk and rose from his chair. He stepped around his desk, stalking towards me. My arms fell at my sides, my knees suddenly felt weak as he looked over me. He stood only a few inches from me. I had to tilt my head back all the way just to look into his eyes.

“You’re going to keep the car, Violet.” His voice was stern and so sexy, it sent a shiver down my spine and a small gasp escaped my lips.

“Do you understand?” His brown eyes bore into mine, I felt lost in them.

“Y-yes sir.” I watched as his eyes closed and his jaw clenched.

“Please get to work.” He said as he turned his back to me. I quickly scrambled out of the room, closing the door behind me.

Nathan POV

I stood staring out of my window, reaching down I adjusted my throbbing c**k in my pants. Her strawberry smell and her big, innocent eyes were driving me crazy. I wanted to bend her over my desk and teach her a lesson. I let out a deep sigh and rubbed my eyes. I need to get my head on straight, she is my secretary, I’m her boss. That’s it.

“Nathan?” I heard her beautiful voice call from the phone intercom.

“Yes, Violet?” I responded as I pressed the button.

“Um, Kendall is on the other line, what would you like me to do?” f**k, not this again.

“You can transfer her to my line.” I sighed.

“Yes sir.” I felt my c**k throb when she called me sir. I wanted to ask her to stop, but a sick part of myself wouldn’t allow myself to stop her.

“Nate! Baby, please listen!” Kendall’s hysterical voice rang through my phone.

“Kendall we are over, you need to stop this.” I pinched the bridge of my nose.

“But it’s not what you think it is!” I could hear the tears in her voice.

“It’s not? I talked to Bryan, Kendall, I know everything.” I replied curtly.

“He lied!” She sobbed through the phone.

“Pictures and videos don’t lie, Kendall.” There was a thick silence, I almost thought the phone had disconnected.

“Baby, it was all a mistake, you know I love you.” All of a sudden her tears and quivering voice were gone.

“I’m not taking you back, Kendall. Get that through your thick skull, what we had is over. If you contact me again, you’ll be hearing from my lawyer.” I heard her take a sharp breath.

“You f*****g asshole! You will never find someone as good as-” I ended the call before she could finish her tirade.

“Violet.” I pressed the button that connected me to her phone.

“Yes sir.” I clenched my jaw.

“If Kendall calls again, I need you to contact my lawyer. I’ll email you his information, do not talk to her. Simply end the call and contact my lawyer.”

“Will do! Um, I was wondering if you wanted chipotle for lunch? I was just about to order some.” I could just imagine her nibbling on that plump bottom lip.

“That sounds great, I’ll email you my order.” For the first time in a long while, I felt a smile tug at my lips.

“Okay!” Her voice was so beautiful, I found myself wanting to hear it all the time. I leaned back in my chair and twirled my pens in between my fingers. I closed my eyes, imagining her strawberry blonde head bobbing up from under my desk. I wonder how soft her hair felt, how warm her throat was. I let out a deep sigh, I feel like a pervert. Violet is sweet, she doesn’t deserve a weird, pervy boss. I shook my head and leaned forward, forcing my attention towards my computer. I pulled up my email to send my lawyers information and food order to Violet.

Violet POV

I couldn’t believe I eavesdropped on Nathan and Kendall. It was an accident, I should’ve jumped off the line, but I couldn’t stop myself. I wanted to feel sad for Nathan, but knowing that he was single had my tummy filling with butterflies. I couldn’t stop smiling as I ate my burrito bowl, my head swirling with fantasies. I hated admitting it, but I’d never had s*x before. I had two boyfriends in my life, one was Jason Range from middle school, two was Frances Shot from my sophomore year of high school. Jason and I had a pretty intense makeout session behind the gym. We dated for three months until he cheated on me with Summer Brown. She was ready to have s*x, I wasn’t. Frances was my longest boyfriend, we dated for one year and two months. Nothing serious happened between us, a few awkward make out sessions here and there. Then in our senior year he told me that he thought he was gay. Him and his husband Kyle got married last year. Everything I know about s*x is from my erotic novels or Piper. Even though she lives with Jeremy, they still see other people. Piper is very open about her s*x life, I cringed slightly remembering all the crazy things she’d told me. I couldn’t wait to see her, I hadn’t seen her for almost four months. She was almost done with college so she’d been throwing all of her energy and time into school. I jumped slightly once the phone started ringing.

“Harrison Construction, this is Violet, how may I help you?”

“Oh you sound so sweet!” I heard a woman say on the other end.

“Thank you?” My eyebrow rose.

“Oh where are my manners, I’m Jennifer Harrison, I’m Nathan’s mom.”

“Oh, hello Mrs. Harrison, I’m Violet, Nathan’s new secretary.” I smiled into the receiver.

“Just call me Jen, sweetheart. I hope my son had the sense to invite you to Greg’s party, if not I’ll invite you myself.” She said with a laugh.

“Yes, he did invite me.”

“Good, good, now could you let me talk to him, sweetheart?”

“Absolutely, one moment please.” I replied as I hit the button to connect me with Nathan.

“Yes Violet?” His voice sounded gruff and sexy, it caused me to have a mini brain fart.

“Your mother is on the other line, sir.” I could just imagine his jaw clenching.

“Please transfer the call over.” I transferred the call and disconnected on my side, I didn’t want to eavesdrop on him again. After that the work day passed in a blur of replying to emails, answering calls, and daydreaming about my boss. I huffed as I climbed into my car, I couldn’t believe he bought me an entire car! I ran my hand over the steering wheel and inhaled deeply. It had that amazing fresh car smell. I finally took a moment to actually inspect the car. The seats were black suede, the radio was all decked out. I could connect my phone with bluetooth, no more aux cords, finally! As I admired my new car, I mourned my old one. I smiled as I pulled out of my parking spot, here’s to new memories!
